The artworks in this collection thread together elements of West African mask-making traditions, science fiction, geometric figures and interstellar vessels to create an amorphous futuristic tapestry. The interlacing of natural elements and the primary geometric forms often associated with LEGO® evoke an aesthetic that is at times haunting, futuristic and simultaneously traditional.
